β Materials & Prep :
Info :
You will need YarnArt Jeans 18 (or 74), 20, 36, 42, 69, 07, 11, 35 colors. Pink shades can be combined in different ways, so consumption of yarn may differ; shades 18 (74), 36 and 42 may need more than 1 skein. Also you will need ball shaped bottle (350 ml, diameter 9 cm). If you cannot find a bottle, use 9 cm styrofoam ball and milk bottle cap. Fishing line (1 mm diameter), 30 cm pipe cleaner, fiberfill, tapestry needle, hot glue gun.
Infos :
If you have a ball shaped bottle, clean it, stuff firmly and cut the top thread. If you use a styrofoam ball, cut off a piece with a kitchen knife to get a flat bottom. Glue a cap from milk bottle on top using hot glue gun.
β Teapot Bottom (Begin from bottom) :
Round 2 :
Inc every st =12 sc (12)
Round 3 :
Inc every 2d =18 sc (18)
Round 4 :
Inc every 3d =24 sc (24)
Round 5 :
Inc every 4th = 30 sc (30)
Round 6 :
Inc every 5th = 36 sc (36)
Round 7 :
Inc every 6th = 42 sc (42)
Round 8 :
Inc every 7th = 48 sc (48)
Round 9 :
Inc every 8th = 54 sc (54)
Round 10 :
Inc every 9th = 60 sc (60)
Round 11 :
Inc every 10th = 66 sc (66)
Round 12 :
Inc every 11th = 72 sc (72)
Round 13-14 :
Work 2 rounds straight (72)
Round 15-24 :
Change yarn to pink color (36), work 10 rounds straight (work 10 rounds without increases)
Round 25 :
Change yarn to light pink (18 or 74). (10 sc, dec) * 6 times
Round 26 :
(9 sc, dec) * 6 times
Round 27 :
(8 sc, dec) * 6 times
Info :
Keep decreasing symmetrically to increasing. When you came close to bottle neck, work straight, without dec. The main thing is to crochet around the bottle in three approximately equal sections; if your density differs, adjust rounds to fit shape.
β Teapot Spout :

Attach all the petals with hot glue gun, applying glue on the bottom 2/3 of the petals. Make symmetrically on both sides of the pot. Small petals are fixed at the level of light pink part of the base. First one in the center, then 2 on the sides with an overlap, right next to the handle and spout.
Info :
Middle petals are glued first on the sides, then one in the middle. Side petal comes under the handle of the pot. Large petals stretch wide with your hands so that they fit well on the bottom of the pot, 2 on each side.
Info :
Now turn down the unglued edges of the petals, giving them beautiful waves. All areas adjacent to the base, fasten with a gun.

Round 7-17 :
Work 11 rounds straight. Crochet on the inside (front side inside, purl outside). Not very convenient, but we have to.
